Hi,

If the CPF SA Max limit is $166k, what happens to the following year interest generated from the $166k ?

Stay in SA lor. Only MA will spill over to SA or OA. SA has no "cap" for interest, only contributions can spill from SA to OA.

If you sa max is $166k, mean you way pass 55, and likely that amount already become RA. And RA interest remain in RA

2018: MA at 49.8k & SA at 166k
2020: MA at 60.0k & SA at least 185k

Seems like not easy to catch up if u don't have at least 6k salary with bonus 2times.

Let's say MA is maxed out and one transfer from OA to SA such that the interest generated for SA is enough to offset the yearly increment, one will be able to meet sooner or later right?

update - iceblended answered for me already

At the rate the minimum sum for SA is going, I armchio at the younger generation who started work. They will not be able to hit the minimum sum even if they reach 50 year old. By 2040 SA minimum sum will be 350k.

If CPF cap the contribution at 6k for companies. Good luck to the younger generation.

There is no max cap for OA and SA.

The cap is applicable only if u try top up. But if salary or voluntary contribute, only the annual limit applies.
